Bill There are about 12 weeks left before the Gathering. If you start flying now, 1 hour per day, 4 days a week (weather permitting) you might get your hours flown off to go to the Gathering. Get my drift? Start flying that VW.KR.when your safe and keep flying every day until its done. I'm sorry I won't be there this year to see you fly your bird, but if that was the only reason for me to go I'd be there to see it! You have been one determined KR builder! I'm glad I was at 2004 and 2005 to meet you....Other 'stuff' got in the way for this year though .... Gary
-----Original Message----- Subject: RE: KR> the IN-Crowd I definitely considered it, and if it were not for all the other things that would have had to be changed, I might have done it. I finally have a nice running VW, but really will get started on a Corvair sometime in the future, just for the fun of it and because I know that this engine will not last forever. ww.krnet.org/info.html
